Default "Love For Sale"

Yes it's a great old Cole Porter tune (check out the Billie Holiday
version - ya won't regret it) but, in the regard of wooddorking it can
only mean that tools are being disposed of.

Some dude drove all the way down from Connecticut yesterday to buy my
Delta Line Borer. I guess I priced that thing too low.

I've been listing the tools for sale, one at a time, on Woodweb. I
guess because I'm more of a "death by a thousand cuts' fan, than a
"why don't I rip my heart out all at once" sorta fella.

Now I face a tossup between selling the Grizz 8" jointer (with the
spiffy HTC mobile base), or the Delta 14" Bandsaur ( with riser block
and it's own spiffy HTC mobile base), or the Jet 1236 Lathe (this one
has a Jet mobile base - so it's color coordinated).

Sophie's Choice?

Nah. Just part of my continuing migration to the Elysian Fields of
NeanderBubbaism.

Ya'll have an opportunity to grab this good stuff before it hits the
hongry maw of Woodweb.

But ya don't have long.

Till 'bout Wednesday, I figger.



Regards,
Tom.

O.K, Tommy boy,
I'll bite. One cheap-skate to another . . . how much for the Grizz 8 incher?
And don't give me that 'Stormy Weather' routine, either.

It should go well with my still-in-the-box 'portable' planer.

More importantly, what's the real reason for the 'disposable sale' ? When I
hear the word 'migration' combined with 'retired', in these circumstances, I
get the feeling that a relocation is in the near future. {'Bubba' Watson
?? - Nah !!}

Drop me a note, off-line. Sounds like we better get together for that
delayed shooting & sailing time we've been talking about.

$525.00, with the mobile base and an unused set of replacement knives.
The manuals and other docs are included.

Pick up only.


You might be interested in some clamps, too. I haven't gotten that
far along yet but I'll be getting rid of at least half of them.

Tom.

Don't DO that! I've just gotten to the stage where I am in sore need for a
clamp storage system. But first, I need a wood storage system. But before that,
I need to finish moving into the shop.

Of course, the latter would be easier if I didn't have plywood and oak and
cherry all around the shop, where I am also tripping over clamps.

Great! Now you tell us about the Delta 14" Bandsaur! Grandson is here today
to help me finish assembling the G0555 Griz I picked up in Williamsport on
Friday.(Including riser kit & Shop Fox mobile base)

'S alright though Tom. It's wonderful to be able to have a "brand new" toy
along with all the used stuff.

Will you be selling the workbench? I suspect not. How about the table saw? I
am just around the corner from you.
Thanks
